Advice on equipment for a new GM

I’m starting up a Dungeon Fantasy game with some friends. This is my first time running GURPS and my first time seeing it played in a fantasy genre. One of my players has experience with GURPS, but he rest are fairly new to RPGs in general. They’re counting on me for a lot of advice on their starting cash but I don’t want to screw them over

So far they’ve made a bard, scout, wizard, and druid. My last player is planning on a melee fighter. What’s your preferred armor for low ST types? Is a breastplate and helmet workable to start out? I guess if it doesn’t work out, I can drop some new armor as loot.

Also, I can’t find prices for beasts of burden, carts and wagons in my DF starter set. Where would you go for that? Basic Set? (I know my wife will want a poooony.) I had found Icelander’s horse stats and prices and was considering using them. Has anybody used them in DF?
